Cloth Nappy Tree Forum

Sometime i wonder why people bother having children when they clearly have no time for them at all. Everything is about convenience and not what's best for the family.

Warning: this might made your eyes bleed and your brain explode.

If people choose to use disposables thats up to them.....it would never be my choice for all the reasons we all know and stick to the fluffy side!

What really annoys me though is peoples incredibly negative attitude towards something they know absolutely nothing about!

If the person is educated on cloth but chooses not to use them (which is their perogative) that's fine.....you'd rarely hear that sort of person making comments though.

It's the people who know nothing about cloth, the benefits, the fabrics the nappies are made from, the environmental positives etc who then slate every aspect of them in favour of disposables who drive me insane

These people tend to know nothing of the negativities of disposables either....at least I know the pro's and con's of both and therefore can and have made educated choices regarding nappies!

Yes exactly, this is what I was trying to say except you put it across better than I

I want to use wool now when we next see them, particularly if it's warm

Today she was in a cute matching shorts and T shirt set from M&S, so looked normal

Thing is though, I wouldn't dare judge anyone who is bottle feeding and get all high & mighty about how much better it is to bf.... so what gives people the right to make these sort of remarks, that disposables are far superior?

Yes that really bugs me too.....

This has to be a spoof right? The comments are the best bit......

A lady today asked if i was vegetarian (never met her before!!) & i said well, yes i am- why..? She said well with Elsie in cloth & her clothes (skirty) & Kai's clothes she thought i must be!!!! (Kai had his zuchinni & cream yoga pants & vintage cars top!!)

Am very lucky- most of my friends/ plenty of those i talk to are very open to cloth & LOVE her wool!!!
